Color

Color sets the tone before a single word is read. Our palette is built to feel confident, modern, and clear—supporting strong hierarchy and accessible contrast. Use core colors for structure and recognition, and apply accent colors intentionally to guide attention.

Typography

Typography is where clarity becomes craft. Our type system is designed for calm readability, strong hierarchy, and a direct voice. Keep layouts simple, use consistent scales, and let spacing do the heavy lifting.

Voice

Our tone of voice embodies our brand’s personality, built on trust, collaboration, and expertise. We aim to be approachably professional—conversational and friendly.

Approachable

Short/medium sentence structure, writing to communicate with our audience and not to appear intelligent.

Pace

Short, clear sentences

Word Choice

Plain language first

Warmth

Human, not salesy

We're the ones to talk to

Professional

Concise whenever appropriate, always prioritizing clarity in the context or medium.

Clarity

Plain language first

Confidence

Certain, not arrogant

Precision

Fewer words, better words

We’re experts at learning your business, and extracting the knowledge of your company’s experts so that together we build the tailored solution that your company needs.

Friendly & Conversational

Start with why by providing a problem statement that our audience can identify, moving to how, and then to what.

Hook

Start with their reality

Flow

Why → how → what

Invite

Ask, don’t lecture

Everything we do starts with consultation where we learn your business and help you identify opportunities with software.

Imagery

Imagery should feel real, grounded, and people-centered—showing the work, the process, and the partnership. Favor authentic moments over stocky “tech” clichés. Choose photos and illustrations that reinforce trust, competence, and momentum.

Icons

Icons help us recognize complex ideas instantly.

Spot Icons

Use these as bold, illustrative accents to introduce a section or reinforce a concept, usually at larger sizes. They are minimal and purposeful so they don’t compete with the headline.

Icon Set

Pictograms

Pictograms are simple, symbolic visuals used to explain a concept or process at a glance. Use them in brand moments like feature explanations, steps, and storytelling sections, and avoid using them for interface controls.

Icon Set

UI Icons

Use these to support interaction—navigation, actions, and status—at small sizes with consistent stroke and alignment. They should improve scanning and usability, not draw attention to themselves.

07.

Visual Style

Our visual style is confident and modern, with color used as a first-class design element—bold when it needs to be, controlled everywhere else. We lean on strong grids, generous spacing, and clear hierarchy so the palette feels intentional, not noisy. Color carries meaning and energy, while layout keeps things grounded.
